Press Release Summary:

Available with 0.60" stroke, generates 1.12 lbs of continuous force and 3.36 lbs of peak force

Ideal for applications that require quick, short moves with fast settling times

Original Press Release:

Low Profile Voice Coil Positioning Stage

H2W Technologies introduces a high acceleration, voice coil driven, positioning stage with a sliding contact bearing system, which allows for high lifetime, high cycle, and a desirable MTBF in the system. The voice coil stage (VMS06-008-LB-01) is a closed loop positioning system that can be used for positioning applications. The stage utilizes a custom low-profile design that utilizes a unique electromagnetic circuit design. This design allows for a minimal cross section of 1.20 inches [30.5 mm] by 1.00 inches [25.4 mm]. The stage has a 0.60" [15.2 mm] stroke; generates 1.12 lbs [5.0 N] of continuous force and 3.36 lbs [15 N] of peak force. Each axis is guided by sliding contact bushing assemblies. It includes a one-micron resolution magnetic linear encoder. This design utilizes a moving magnet, which has no moving wires, and has anti-rotation elements built-in to prevent shafts from slipping. Voice coil positioning stages are ideal for applications that require quick, short moves with fast settling times.

Features:

Low-profile

Long bearing life in a high cycle environment

No moving cables

Anti-rotation

High acceleration

Compact footprint

Custom strokes and force configurations available
